Rekeying
New pins, new keys, old keys dead. The cheapest way to secure a house after a move or a lost key. Every door can share one key.

Deadbolt installation
New deadbolts drilled and fitted, with reinforced strike plates screwed into the framing.

Keypad and app-controlled deadbolts installed and set up with you before we leave.

High-security locks
Pick- and drill-resistant cylinders with restricted keys that cannot be copied at a hardware store.
-
House lockouts
Opened without damage whenever the lock allows.
-
Patio, storm, and back doors
Sliding door locks, storm door latches, and back door hardware repaired or replaced.
-
Gate and mailbox locks
Gate locks, padlocks, and mailbox locks replaced and keyed to match.
Rekey or replace?
If your locks work smoothly and you only need the old keys to stop working, rekey. We change the pins inside, hand you new keys, and it costs a fraction of new hardware.
Replace when a lock is damaged, worn loose, builder-grade and flimsy, or when you want something stronger like a high-security or keypad deadbolt. We will tell you which you need, even when the answer is the cheaper one.
Good to know
- Just bought a house? Rekey before you move in
- A deadbolt is only as strong as its strike plate and screws
- Keypad locks keep a key override for dead batteries
- We can key new locks to the key you already carry

We come and fix it
A licensed locksmith arrives, checks ID for lockouts, and gets it done, usually in one visit.
Questions people ask us on the phone.
Can all my doors use one key?
Usually, yes, if the locks share a keyway. If not, we swap the cylinders so they do.
Are smart locks secure?
Good ones are, when installed correctly with a solid strike. We install brands we trust and set them up with you.
How long does rekeying a house take?
A typical house is done in one visit. We quote the time and price on the phone.
Can you install a lock I bought myself?
Yes. We will tell you honestly if it is a good lock before we put it in.
